Figure 5. RCP knockdown attenuates tumor formation and metastasis.

Figure 5

Effects of RCP inhibition on tumor growth using (A) MCF7 cells in nude mice and (B) MB231 cells in NOD-SCID mice are shown. (A) Left panel shows mean tumor volume plotted as a function of time (mean ± SEM). Right panel shows tumor weight plotted at 5 weeks; mean weight indicated by solid line. (B) Left panel, tumor weight plotted at indicated number of weeks; mean weight indicated by solid line. Right panel, the average number of lung micrometastases per section is shown. (C) Representative lung sections and fluorescently imaged whole lungs (right panel) of NOD-SCID mice are shown. Micrometastases are indicated by arrows. Scale bars: 200 μm.
